markets. find out what's really happening to the global economy for a no holds barred look at the global financial headline news you guys are required . more civilian deaths in libya as nature takes command of military operations here and gadhafi forces succeeded in pushing rebel fighters further back i'm paulus here in the capital city of tripoli join me in a few moments and i'll bring you more. security services in europe for all the libyan that spreads through a very interesting terrorism that has become spiraling out. of. that sentencing is delayed again for his reign as men trapped in georgia going to court decision he says he's been such a government installed boy paying one hundred million dollars to have an. internet giant cisco has
5:01 am
a question one billion dollar investment into russian projects join me for that story and more in about twenty minutes out. there around the world and around the clock this is our take on characters to the top story in libya government troops have pushed rebel forces out of recently captured territory colonel gadhafi his hometown. counter-offensive the capital tripoli which has been a constant target for nato missiles there's been reports of further explosions. across. the mood here i think it is quite accurate to say has done almost eight hundred eighty degrees since the weekend when the rebel forces began that almost night being advancement waste over libya if it was accurate to say that then people here. feeling nervous i think that nervousness is now being transferred to the
5:02 am
rebels and the excitement that the rebels were feeling just three four days ago has now been transferred here to tripoli and we've witnessed that in the last two nights there has been angry demonstrations just in front of the hotel where we've been staying until the early hours of this morning people standing there with banners screaming and shouting and showing their support for the duffy the situation here is so fluid it changes every few hours that frontline constantly moving forward and moving backwards although in the last twenty four hours it certainly seems as if the front line is moving backwards towards the city of benghazi the latest reports we have do suggest that the rebels have been pushed now to the city of being in jail wired that this city is clearly in the hands of gadhafi as men it is the last main city before the city of sirte which is a good f. you stronghold it is certainly his hometown and they were initially reports coming that the rebels have actually advanced into sirte but now not only have they been pushed to binge or what we are hearing that they've also been pushed further back to the port city of ras lanuf and indeed the next city for them to be pushed back
5:03 am
to will be the city of gregor once this happens they are not that far from the city of baghdad which is just outside of benghazi and if you remember it was a little more than a week ago that the rebels first started making their advance and there was so much celebration and so much talk that because of the coalition airstrikes they had actually after a week of a stalemate in actually able to advance to that city of baghdad the international community was against you say that the u.n. resolution one nine seven three did not enough for international countries to supply that the rebels with weapons but now we seem to be hearing almost a difference of opinion on that at that summit yesterday tuesday in london he was secretive state hillary clinton said it was not one single thing never been the framework of there is a vision of americans could be allowed we know that france is going to be holding discussions over this very issue at the moment what we're hearing though is that countries will not be supplying the rebels with weapons right now but they could in fact to do this in the future certainly would. no from countries like britain but
5:04 am
from the start they've been pushing for the supply of weapons it is increasingly clear that it will certainly need more than just a strike because if until now the rebels have only been able to launch because of these coalition airstrikes against the question if more than a week later they're now being pushed back to where they began and the coalition airstrikes have been continuing for more than ten days but in city it seems it may strike some are some people not imagine. this going off is in the major rebel stronghold the city of benghazi he reports now on how people there are fees and to give up their positions despite the latest. everybody here in the city is monitoring the situation out there on the front and of course the news that the rebels were thrown back again by gadhafi forces were somewhat of a law here but i can tell you that all the locals here are really standing only on one position and that is for gadhafi to go as soon as possible on the rebel say
5:05 am
that they are ready to battle to fight until the end either until they're gone or until he's gone curly there's an illusion i would normal life because many shops are open to cafes and even restaurants but at the same time the banks are still not working and also neither are schools in fact just yesterday i saw a ten or maybe eleven year old boy dressed in the traffic police uniform directing traffic at the same time the opposition has been working to build the control structure of the administrative structure in the east of the country the war going to an interim council we've also organized a new national bank and a new national oil company but when it comes to that industry is currently on hold here in the country because of the on the rest many foreign companies international come. police suspended their operations here and we're actually hearing that all
5:06 am
the oil refinery working clearly indicates he is in the town of this may be enough to supply the the ruggles with gasoline and oil but it's truly not enough for exporting oil. and you can find out firsthand what's happening on the front line in the from our twitter feeds. priests over there just about it and it's on it's a page just search for the school return for more information from across this in the tribal region and as a. u.s. congressman dennis seen it says to prevent civilian deaths in libya washington's legislators should cut off funding for the military campaign. since congress wasn't consulted on whether to go to war and i think only real power congress has here to assert itself as the people's representative is to stop funding you can meet with
5:07 am
a few leaders but there are five hundred thirty five members of congress the constitution of the united states makes it abundantly clear that the war powers is put in the hands of the congress this is not an academic issue by the way because what we have is a president who basically is assumed as a matter of executive privilege the war power the bombing that has occurred through it and in large no fly zone where the no fly zone mandate was expanded to go after these troops and then expand it further to help the rebels as they move towards tripoli there's no way you can avoid civilian casualties and so what we're doing here is enlarging humanitarian crisis with more people becoming refugees with more civilians put at risk of injury or death to the bombing. the u.k. secret service and i thought has concerns that the libyan ex-pats plotting terrorist
5:08 am
attacks and listen according to reports and see that sort of things for me waits like european countries on the cold at all as we've seen. looks at how of these threats could be connected to oakland. e.u. countries have taken a leading role in forcing the u.n. resolution but their efforts all the way over in libya now threaten to bring conflict right to their very own back doors claim colonel gadhafi now has little of the weapons left in his armory that oversees terror he's faced repeated accusations that he ordered lockerbie bombing that killed two hundred seventy mostly westerners experts say some countries are particularly in the firing line three leading countries of the offensive operation that means france in the united states of course the only option yes really is to use terror so i think.
5:09 am
it's a clear cut in prison better today in the coming days and in the coming weeks but e.u. backing for and to get a few rebels could backfire further rebel leaders include the libyan islamic fighting group and associates of al qaida and the casualties mounting every day from allied bombing make fertile recruiting ground for anti western forces there are agents of. irking now believe in that atmosphere scale that's what i am for. you muslims protest against nato as bombing of libya the organizer says people should prepare for the worst then suddenly there's a very strong likelihood that i think. that the most the attack they will try to. anger at the invasion of iraq led to a surge in terror attacks in the e.u. almost two hundred people died in the madrid train bombings in two thousand and
5:10 am
four while suicide bombers killed fifty two people in london in two thousand and five officials now drive similar results in the wake of this campaign western intelligence reports creased back to see among suspected terrorist cells indicating the threat of attack is why one officer told l.t. and e.u. terrorists strike is now just a question of time. russell says. crosstalk debate sharing is yes discuss how successful data has been so far. but the other interventions like iraq they didn't have an exit strategy but this one they don't seem to have an entry strategy either. further details have emerged operation number one terrorist may have been killed suggestion that. raid. on monday
5:11 am
comes from a security source. has more from the. security services and investigators are being cautious about announcing a confirmed death toll of the al qaeda linked terror leader doku models that has been announced around eight times in the past that they killed him in operations and nuts turned out not to be true so they're waiting on a thorough investigation is taking place in the aftermath of a major. operation that took place on monday in any shape shia in the north caucuses no one's the d.n.a. testing is being carried out on those seventeen people who were killed while resisting arrest from security so says it not operation once not investigation is being fully carried out then they will give an announcement whether doku umarov was among those seventeen who were killed on monday in english eighty you know this was a huge huge operation the largest we've seen in town ten years from security
5:12 am
services in the area they used the full force of the russian security services. from the sky using aerial bombings as well as helicopter gunships being used to test suspects were arrested on the scene model certainly the most wanted in the country he has links to al qaida and his his terror cells have carried out a slew of deadly attacks across russia and just on tuesday he was the fish really charged with the with being the mastermind behind the january gas suicide attack on the head of the airport here in moscow now on hold because tuesday a court of twelve was the end of this to be the one year anniversary of another old models they claim to go play terror attacks claimed by a model that took so many lives that was the double suicide bombing on the moscow
5:13 am
metro so a very very much public enemy number one here in the country but and it's not just taking sides. border's that he is wanted it was announced that the united states had placed him on their. own their wanted list also the united nations looking wanting to see him being brought to justice. to japan now where the government is considering the construction of a containment shell at the damaged fukushima nuclear power plant aimed at averting for the radiation leaks or crisis it is still being described as a grave plan that would involve the three most dreaded directors the current of high tech tiriel from the litigation if you can see what i mean this site is now said to be around three and a half thousand times higher than normal workers have unsuccessfully trying to restore the cooling system at the facility and what is now the worst atomic crisis since to no. energy expert says there are parallels with the disaster twenty five

years ago. if you thought it was a very very dangerous and harmful substance even in very small quantities of plutonium it is ingested by a human body it almost certainly leads to the development of cancer there's no concept posed to one hit on whole to store the radioactive fuel which will radiate from many many many thousands of years but we know from the information provided by i.a.e.a. already lost we are already a significant amount of subs the radioactive substance where it might. to a situation where we can compare it to general and to fukushima it will come from the mouth of release of radioactive substances plus that is that there is a danger of the release of plutonium. sexy our school has traveled from novelist
5:15 am
can for example find out whether nature and science are covering that and sent this report from the area around and after the catastrophe. exactly twenty five years ago what is now an absolutely lifeless ghost town of people in ukraine was a bustling scene this was not only the pride of the soviet union in terms of construction something of a role model of a perfect town but also it was one of its biggest secrets towns life were called to my god or a nuclear city and they were restricted only to the nuclear power plant workers and some military personnel and security service men is nowadays part of the chernobyl exclusion zone and it is believed to be very unsafe to live here in terms of radiation levels now this is the place where the authorities made their first fatal mistake this is called the death bridge that connects the chernobyl nuclear power station and the closest town of p.p.s. when the explosion happened nobody knew what was going on in the very first hours
5:16 am
so the authorities set up a security checkpoint in order to avoid anyone leaving the city and entering the contaminated area the security checkpoint was at the very end of this bridge nobody knew how much radiation was emitted and most of the policemen who were working at this security checkpoint died in the first days after the explosion and there's a lot of misperception and misunderstanding concerning the levels of radiation in the chernobyl area or how dangerous it is here many speculate as to whether the land is populated with mutants or the levels of radiation would be able to kill human being within minutes or even seconds and i'm walking in the central part of treatment right now and my radiation meter shows the level of around one hundred and forty micro wrong in our this is of course about five seven times more than the normal human level and it may sound scary to some but this still is a radiation would not kill a human being but in some parts of the parents radiation levels go much much higher
5:17 am
this is now around three hundred twenty micro wrong ins which is more than fifteen times more than the normal human level of radiation but if we just take a little walk to this layer of moss on the ground you'll see that there. ideation level will go dramatically higher now this layer of morse is one of the most dangerous spots in people in fact and it acts like a radioactive sponsor if we put radiation meter on it you can see and you can even hear how frantic the radiation goes and the numbers are increasing rapidly. some may say that this is very dangerous for for human health. specialists told me on many occasions that in order to get some kind of harm to your body to to maybe even get the first stages of radiation sickness you have to literally just sit in the slayer for a week or so and only then you will feel some harm to your body and the fallout period of many nuclear particles still remaining in this area amounts to several thousand years only few of them actually started the fallout period twenty five
5:18 am
years since the chernobyl accident should anything like that happen at the fukushima nuclear reactor the insider fifty sixty maybe even seventy kilometer radius would be evacuated that is according to some experts but clearly this land for the exclusion zone in ukraine will images will remain until the end of times as this land will never be inhabited again alexi russia ski out sea reporting from the chernobyl exclusion zone in ukraine. that story art and dot com but if you like including still on track russia plans to build high school railings . and time consuming. things are on the prowl for brain searches on. two hundred interns and.
